Book Review – Cain’s Salvation by Sarah O’Rourke

When Dr. Cain Turner’s life was literally blown apart in a small province of Afghanistan, it was only the hope and memories of one woman that propelled him forward. But there were more demons to face.

In the small country hamlet of Paradise, Tennessee…Faith waits. Surrounded by her loving sisters, Faith McKinnon had faced her own demons, having thought that the love of her life had deserted her.

But fate…and a few meddling McKinnon sisters…conspired to bring the two star-crossed lovers together again.

Where do I even begin??? BEST BOOK YET by Sarah O’Rourke! AMAZING! This book is different from her erotica series, but just as HOT! I loved every character in the book and can’t wait to read more about them. I officially want to be one of the McKinnon sisters! And Cain. . .HOT, stubborn, and so sweet!

Faith McKinnon has been in love with Cain Turner forever! He completes her and loves her unconditionally. But when he is deployed everything they both want seems impossible.

“Faith McKinnon was everything he’d ever wanted…and nothing he’d ever deserved to have. Especially after being tainted by this goddamned war. It was time to let her go.”

Dr. Cain Turner’s life will never be the same. While deployed he realized that he could never make Faith happy and she deserved more than he could give. The war destroyed him, leaving him lost. So he tries to protect Faith by sending her a Dear John letter explaining that they could never be together.

“Afghanistan chips away at a man’s soul, Honor. War makes a man forget who he is.”

When Faith received that letter she was devastated, broken and sad. And now she is still all of those things but also angry. When she finds out that Cain is back in town she is MAD. She is mad because he didn’t tell her he was home. But when they finally do meet the fireworks are still there for both of them but Faith has no idea how she can forgive him and Cain doesn’t know if he can ever be the man Faith loves again.

“Just say you forgive me, and I’ll spend the rest of my life proving I can be the kind of man you deserve.”

Finally family and friends decide to help fate out and bring these two back together. But is it too late? Can she ever forgive him? Can Cain ever be the man he was before the war? Or has too much changed?

“You are not responsible for the sins of the world. That is not your cross to bear.”

Life after being deployed to a war zone is never easy. I can relate as a military wife, that this is real (sometimes too real), and happening every day. Sarah O’Rourke has written a truly beautiful story about military life, love, and forgiveness. There are not enough words to explain how much I LOVED this story! And can’t wait for more from the rest of the McKinnon Sisters! (I REALLY REALLY want to be their new sister!!)
